Proud Canadian Blogger!

I love reading blogs. Most of the bloggers I "meet" are American of course, and some are British or Australian. But occasionally I get a little thrill when I realise that a blogger is Canadian! To show my Canadian pride, I created this badge to share. Feel free to download it and use it without attribution. The maple leaf graphic is from www.openclipart.org. The background is transparent.

Some of my favourite Canadian blogs are:

Life in the Fun Lane - This blogger actually lives in the same city as I do! Which makes me kind of feel like a stalker when I read her blog. A Pretty Life in the Suburbs - Jo-Anna gave me a bit of a shock when I came across her blog...she's my doppelgänger. We have the same name, write a "pretty life" blog, and are both Canadian.Canadian Cottage - I love this woman's houses (old and new) and her decorating style.

If you've added this badge to your blog, I'd love to have you link up here so I can visit! Add your blog link below:

I love this idea!!! I also enjoy finding fellow Canadian bloggers, so I'm totally stealing the badge. (I'd noticed it in your sidebar and admired it before I saw this post about it.) Very nice badge. :)

Holy cow! You have no idea how excited I was to just stumble upon another blog and see this badge. And then I got super freakin' excited when I clicked on it and found out I could be a part of the Canadian blogger party :) But seriously, I've felt like this little small lost Canadian blog amongst a lot of big, bad, America blogs (which i still love of course). Thanks :)

Thank you for the badge! I love finding fellow Canadian bloggers too and I have a list on my blog list page specifically for Canadian blogs. I'll be putting this on that page along with my side bar! Thanks for sharing!http://dewdropgardens.blogspot.ca/Debbie :)

I've always been curious about this badge whenever I came across it on other blogs. I was under the impression that you had to have been featured somewhere to get it! Today, I thought, let's see what this is about...so glad I did! I've copied and pasted it on my blog as of today. Thanks so much! It really is so well done and I'm so proud to be a Canadian, albeit one who lives abroad. Hope you'll come by and visit some time. Thanks again.

Hi Poppy, thanks so much for visiting! I'm happy to see my little badge is making the rounds ;-)Your blog looks fascinating! I will take a closer look as soon as I can. I've always loved the idea of living in Europe.

Hello Joanna! It's always nice to meet another Canadian blogger! I saw your button on a blog and followed it to here - glad I did too! Hey, I've just started a Facebook interest group for Canadian bloggers and it's here: https://www.facebook.com/lists/361754750580998, so we can read Canadian blog posts all on one page. If you'd like your page on there, let me know and we've also got a private Facebook group to go with that too if you'd like to join us there too.

That's such a great idea!!! I am a Canadian Blogger too, and woul dlove to have the badge!But first I need to figure out HOW to add it t my page... Recently chaged from blogspot to wordpress, joy of joys!Cheers,Claudinewww.restory.ca

Thank for the Proud Canadian Blogger flag and thank you for giving me a way to discover other Canadians to hang out with! Of course I love reading blog from around the world, but it's nice to be home too! :o)

Brilliant! I also tend to geek out when I find another Canadian blogger - or better yet, another local blogger (I recognized the river valley from your "About Me" pic and had a little "eek" moment) So glad I found you. Thanks for sharing the badge :)

Yessssss, I'm so glad I found you, another Canadian blogger, and your badge on Poppy's blog. I've been looking for a Canadian Badge that I can add proudly to my blog's sidebar. Thank you so much eh and I look forward to following you! You can find me at http://www.interiorfrugalista.com.

Oh, I love finding other Canadian bloggers and thrilled to see so many here! Not surprised that everyone is rushing to put your lovely maple leaf on their blog - I have done the same! Thanks so much!I found you at Pieced Pastimes today and fell in love with your picture and had to come see more. What a gorgeous blog you have! I'm going to have so much fun exploring!

I saw your maple leaf badge on another blog (The Interior Frugalista) - and I just had to have it on my blog! I have lived in the US most of my adult life, and have dual citizenship -- but I feel strong ties to my Canadian heritage. Added the badge, and it is linked back to your site. Thanks for creating it! I love your blog.http://www.ofeverymoment.com
